Hi all,

So I've built QtWebkit 2.3 beta 2, and then built kwebkitpart against that QtWebkit (using -DQT_QTWEBKIT_INCLUDE_DIR -DQT_QTWEBKIT_LIBRARY_RELEASE on cmake). Now how do I specify in Rekonq's build process to use my own kwebkitpart/qtwebkit?

If you set the environment variable "CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH" to the path where you have installed QtWebkit 2.3 and kwebkit, then it should pick them up instead of your system wide Qt Webkit.

You may need to pass other CMake arguments to enable use of QtWebkit 2.3 in Rekonq though - or you may need to use an alternative branch of the source code.

Thanks-- I passed instead the same CMake arguments I used to build kwebkitpart and it seems to have worked.

Does anyone know if QtWebkit 2.3 final will be included with the rest of Qt 4.8, ergo packaged by distros?

I would recommend following the Qt development mailing list for answers to such questions.
